The Britney Spears Guide to Semiconductor Physics

"It is a little known fact," boasts this site, "that Ms. Spears is an expert in semiconductor physics. Not content with just singing, in the following pages she will guide you in the fundamentals of the vital laser components that have made it possible to hear her super music in a digital format."

And, oh, baby, does she. Britney is jammin' with her lyrical discourses on "The Basics of Semiconductors," "p-n Junctions," "Radiative and Non-radiative Transitions," "Edge-emitting Lasers," "Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Lasers," "Photonic Crystals," and some less bubblegum stuff.

Put on your favorite B. S. CD, form-caressing halter top, and sparkly navel bob and browse through "Britney Spears Lip-Glossary of Semiconductor Physics Terms" from A to Zincblende. ("Zincblende - structure of tetrahedral crystals also known as sphalerite consists of two interpenetrating face-centred cubic lattices (fcc) with one of the lattices displaced in each direction by 1/4 of a lattice parameter. Compounds semiconductors with a Zincblende structure include GaAs, InP, InAs, AlAs, AlSb, SiC, CdS, BN and HgTe.")

That's our Britney. Pretty tart. Pretty smart.
